Mon, 02 Sep 2013 11:31:22 +0000bob_summers5295757@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>A. But I've had those tyres and the gumwalls are impossible to keep clean from brake sludge so go with the corsas (black sidewalls) instead. It'll never look right with a Shimano crank anyway...

<p>I'd go for B.</p>
<p>Once you've had black you never go back, innit?

Mon, 02 Sep 2013 11:29:11 +0000londonerinoz5295750@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>B, I suppose. Do you wear ninja black too? Ideally though I think frames and fork should contrast with the rest, especially the wheels, in order to give an aesthetic balance. Silver spokes on black rims on a black bike just about achieves this too.

<p>Veloflex's just complete the "I am considerably richer than you" look. Mavic's just look like they came free with the wheels.</p>
<p>Although I don't really like either and would have just stuck some Ultremo's on, I like their 'no sidewall' look.

Mon, 02 Sep 2013 11:18:03 +0000ir_bandito5295714@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>A, if you de-sticker the rims as the logo size clashes, and put a bit more yellow highlighting on the build: cable outers, bar tape etc.</p>
<p>or B to keep it simple. But you realise you'll never find your bike if there's a power cut...

I've recently changed my C40 (black &amp; yellow) to black tyres,seat,tape. Looks far nicer in my opinion

They look better and in Veloflex vs Mavic tyres, Veloflex are the clear winner.

Mon, 02 Sep 2013 10:23:38 +0000TiRed5295537@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>B, most definitely. Not only are the Mavic tyres excellent - I raced mine on Weds evening, you get the opportunity to align logos and logos. They are a rather narrow 23, compared with many brands, but the grip is excellent and they roll well. I've amost worn down the back after a season.</p>
<p>I found that I tend to tire of coloured tyres before they wear out. I've had black/white ultremos on a Ti bike taht looked great, black/silver Duranos because they were cheap (and won't die) and black/green on Son1's Cannondale (again cheap and matching). Black for my bikes.
